  • Murdock Middle High School is safer now that they have had staff changes. I like the changes for the sports that they have done for the kids. Keep up the good work.

  • Murdock is a very unsafe school..they have a principle there and he does nothing to help nor he doesn't do anything..and you get blamed for doing something you didn't do..and you get threatened for it..and when you have to go under the knife they say they excuse your absences but they really don't.. Murdock Middle/High School just plain out SUCKS!
